Horses reach people
in extraordinary ways.
Our horses are helping our students reach goals they never imagined. People with autism and Down syndrome have said their first words. Adults with multiple sclerosis and children with neurological disorders have improved balance and gained strength after riding. Some have even taken their first steps. Children from the inner-city and high school students with emotional issues have gained confidence and become inspired to learn. Wounded military veterans and seniors with memory deficits have found comfort and hope from our horses. Discover how our horses can help you or someone you care about.

New Protocols at Fieldstone
With the rising cases in the area, Fieldstone has incorporated new protocols. All students and volunteers who live in counties designated purple (public emergency, only travel for essential services) are asked to stay at home until the restriction is lifted. We have added this new protocol to continue to keep everyone safe. Thank you for understanding. While we are not able to serve all of our students in person at this time, we are working hard to offer other types of programming and equine interaction.

Our Students
Our students range from age three to seniors in their eighties and nineties and have a wide range of challenges including: autism, anxiety, blindness, cerebral palsy, depression, Down syndrome, learning disabilities, multiple sclerosis, neurological disorder, PTSD, spinal cord injuries, and survivors of trauma, among others. All are working with our horses to challenge their limits, break through barriers and achieve goals such as independence, strength, self-esteem, balance, and socialization.

Grateful
Dec. 9, 2020 – One positive outcome of the pandemic is learning what’s important in our lives. During our temporary closing this past spring, the barn was unusually quiet. We missed the cheerful sounds of children and adults greeting our horses and celebrating their “Little Victories.” We heard from our students about how life without their therapy horses was not the same. Horses help them to relax and take their mind off of daily struggles. They help them improve balance, […]
